Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
I support clients who struggle with self-esteem, self-doubt, and a persistent sense of not feeling “enough,” even when life looks stable or successful on the outside. Many of the clients I work with are high-achieving, thoughtful, and capable individuals who have learned to be self-critical in order to succeed, but find that inner voice of criticism difficult to turn off.
Low self-esteem can show up in many ways- difficulty trusting yourself, second-guessing decisions, people-pleasing, comparing yourself to others, or feeling undeserving of rest, success, or healthy relationships. Over time, these patterns can shape how you see yourself and how you move through the world.
In therapy, we work together to understand where these beliefs came from, including past experiences, family dynamics, cultural expectations, and internalized messages about worth and value. Alongside this deeper exploration, we also focus on building practical tools to challenge self-critical thoughts and create new, more balanced ways of relating to yourself.
My goal is to help you develop a stronger, more compassionate relationship with yourself- one where your worth is not dependent on performance, approval, or productivity, but rooted in a more stable and grounded sense of who you are.

Elana Blumenthal
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Self-esteem often comes from feeling a sense of mastery over certain hurdles in our lives, whether with children, socially, our jobs, school work, etc. I work with clients in helping them understand themselves, and gain enough confidence to approach challenges that they may be afraid to take or worry they'll fail at. I help clients talk about the fear of failing and the fear of making mistakes-- which in life are inevitable to some degree for all of us.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
How do we come into confidence? One of the first questions I ask my clients is "what does confidence mean to you?" It never ceases to amaze me that each of us has a slightly different definition. What if your definition really doesn't have much to do with it at all? Everything I have learned as a certified professional Holistic Life Coach turned my own definition on it's head. I invite you to share with me what self esteem and confidence mean to you so that we can start to explore how you see yourself and your relation to others. I am NOT offering therapy—I leave the work of diagnosis and treatment of medical issues to medical professionals. However, coaching can absolutely complement and supplement the therapy work you are doing; our work together will be therapeutic without being therapy. I have a toolkit of fun methods and approaches to self esteem designed to help you question your own assumptions, internal unconscious agreements, and unacknowledged (perhaps limiting) beliefs to get to a place of awareness and insight—the place where confidence truly lives.

Colette Pauta
Counselor/Therapist
Low self-esteem can undermine confidence, limit your goals, and make everyday challenges feel overwhelming. I help clients understand how unhelpful beliefs and negative self-talk developed, and work to challenge those thoughts while building self-compassion and inner strength. Through evidence-based strategies and supportive exploration, you'll learn how to cultivate a more positive self-image, trust in your abilities, and build lasting confidence in who you are.

Michael Nakhla
Psychiatrist, MD
Self-esteem issues often stem from early experiences, negative self-talk, or painful comparisons with others. I help clients identify the roots of low self-worth and challenge the critical inner voice that undermines confidence and happiness. Through our work together, you'll develop genuine self-compassion and build esteem based on authentic self-acceptance rather than external validation or achievement.

Creative Now Therapy, Cris Maria Fort Garcés
Registered Psychotherapist, LCAT, ATR-BC, Gestalt Psychotherapy Certified, Developmental Somatic Psychotherapy Certified, Hakomi Somatic Practitioner
Struggles with self esteem often sound like a harsh inner critic, a sense of not measuring up, or difficulty trusting your own worth. In my work with self esteem, I blend somatic therapy, creative interventions, and deep, compassionate listening to help you untangle old beliefs and step into a more authentic sense of self. Together, we’ll gently challenge internalized stories, build confidence from the inside out, and support you in feeling grounded, worthy, and more at home in your own skin.

Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Low self-esteem often begins in environments where your needs, emotions, or identity were dismissed or criticized. Rather than simply boosting your confidence, we explore the roots of self-doubt and gently repair the internal narratives shaped by past experiences. The goal is not perfection, it is self-trust, self-compassion, and a grounded sense of worth.

Cicek Erdem
Psychologist, PhD
Struggles with self-esteem often run deeper than confidence alone. You may find yourself questioning your worth, comparing yourself to others, fearing rejection, or feeling overly dependent on external validation. Therapy can help you better understand the experiences and relationships that shaped these beliefs, while building greater self-trust, confidence, and self-compassion.

Jenna Sackman - Online/Virtual Therapy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC
*Free Consultation* Loving ourselves is one of the hardest things to do, but it is also one of the most vital. Everything in life builds upon your relationship with yourself, so it is important to build a strong foundation of self-love and self-confidence from which to grow. Together, we can build awareness around false beliefs you may hold about yourself - "I'm not good enough." "I'm unworthy." "I'm unlovable." - and then we can work to challenge that faulty thinking in order to rewrite a more compassionate and truthful narrative, in which you are able to thrive. I offer a 15 min free consultation, so please reach out to see if we're a good fit!

Yaffa Dyckman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Positive self esteem can feel so out of reach sometimes. Negative self talk is so painful and common, and yet we can still feel so alone in it. I have seen great results using psychodynamic therapy and EMDR in this work. You can develop a more compassionate inner voice. You can start feeling better about yourself.
